TO OPERATE:
Cable the S1670 transmitter from its Mic input jack into the line out jack on the amplifier
1) Turn amplifier from audio source on.
2) Turn on the S1670 transmitter. Make sure frequency switch is set to ‘A’
3) Turn S1204 speaker amp on (large rocker switch). The red light should come on, indicating power is available.
NOTE: If for any reason the S1670 transmitter frequency is changed from position ‘A’ as shipped from the factory, please reset to
‘A’ (internal wireless receivers are preset to frequency ‘A’
NOTE: The frequencies used by the S1204 Speaker and the S1670 transmitter are not on clear channels and may be used by other
devices. If the unit receives interference and if you are unable to use the S1670 transmitter, connect the audio source (Line Output)
to the S1204 Line Input, using a cable with standard 3.5mm miniplug. Turn the VOLUME control on the S1204 Speaker completely
down.

Turn clockwise to increase volume. If S1204 is cabled directly into audio source without using transmitter, Volume must be turned all
the way DOWN.)
AUX (FOR CD, CASSETTE, COMPUTER PROJECTOR, VCR, IPOD, MP3
)
To add pre-recorded music or sound effects during your presentation, just plug your CD player, tape player or computer sound card
into the LINE IN jack. Separate VOLUME and TONE control knobs let you balance the program source with the live microphones.
OUTPUT
To connect to the wireless speaker transmitter, or to tape record your speech or program, connect the LINE OUT on the amplifier
(using cable with standard 3.5mm plug) to the input on a tape recorder. Additional S1202 powered companion speakers may also be
connected to the LINE OUT jack.
EXTERNAL SPEAKERS
Two separately amplified speaker jacks allow you to use one or two S1201 speakers for additional sound power
.
INTERNAL SPEAKERS
The internal speakers are wired for stereo, LEFT and RIGHT channel. Sound is reproduced by the appropriate speaker inside the
unit.
PROBLEM SOLVING
Feedback is the howl or screech often heard in sound reinforcement systems. It is caused by sound from the loudspeaker returning to
the microphone. AmpliVox systems utilize proven acoustical principles to minimize this; however, there is no way to completely
eliminate feedback under conditions of high amplification. If feedback occurs check the following:
1. User’s hand covering the head of the microphone. [Hold microphone under head slots.]
2. Sound can easily re-enter microphone. Keep loudspeaker turned toward audience. Note: sound can be reflected from a hard
surface back through the microphone. [Turn speaker.]
3. User holding microphone in a reflecting position. [Turn microphone.]
4. Volume setting too high at main unit: Reduce microphone channel volume, or if using 900MHx wireless companion speaker
option, make sure that the transmit level is properly adjusted; compensate by speaking louder or closer to the microphone.]
NO SOUND
Make sure amplifier POWER switch is turned on and red LED is lit. If switch is on and LED is not lit, check to see that batteries are
properly connected and at full charge. If using optional power adapter, check to see that front panel connector is properly seated, and
verify that the power source is live. If using the wireless speaker transmitter Model S1670, make sure a signal source (CD player,
cassette, MP3 player, line output from another sound system, etc.) is plugged into the AUDIO IN jack, and that the transmitter is
turned on and a fresh “9v” Alkaline battery is installed or the external power transformer is plugged in and working.
